You mentioned you had one of these machines you've tried Linux on.
Can you try and repeat the same thing there (with the newer bios)?
And if you see a similar problem on Linux, see what SuperMicro
support have to say about it?

(though, linux might not be very helpful with your iperf tests,
I'm not sure but they may switch to polling vs. irq under higher
loads which may mask the problem..)

I believe that is for a different issue, yours looks more like
it's something to do with interrupt routing.
